Application Fundamentals
Each application implementation guide provides implementation and processing information for your JD Edwards EnterpriseOne applications. For some applications, additional, essential information describing the setup and design of your system appears in a companion volume of documentation called the application fundamentals implementation guide. Most product lines have a version of the application fundamentals implementation guide. The preface of each implementation guide identifies the application fundamentals implementation guides that are associated with that implementation guide.
xiii
General Preface
The application fundamentals implementation guide consists of important topics that apply to many or all JD Edwards EnterpriseOne applications. Whether you are implementing a single application, some combination of applications within the product line, or the entire product line, you should be familiar with the contents of the appropriate application fundamentals implementation guides. They provide the starting points for fundamental implementation tasks.

We also use italics when we refer to words as words or letters as letters, as in the following: Enter the letter O. KEY+KEY Indicates a key combination action. For example, a plus sign (+) between keys means that you must hold down the first key while you press the second key. For ALT+W, hold down the ALT key while you press the W key. Indicates a PeopleCode program or other code example. Indicate chapter titles in cross-references and words that are used differently from their intended meanings. Indicate that the preceding item or series can be repeated any number of times in PeopleCode syntax. Indicate a choice between two options in PeopleCode syntax. Options are separated by a pipe ( | ). Indicate optional items in PeopleCode syntax. When placed before a parameter in PeopleCode syntax, an ampersand indicates that the parameter is an already instantiated object. Ampersands also precede all PeopleCode variables.

Batch Number
xviii
General Preface
P: The system is in the process of posting the batch. The batch is unavailable until the posting process is complete. If errors occur during the post, the batch status changes to E. U: The batch is temporarily unavailable because someone is working with it, or the batch appears to be in use because a power failure occurred while the batch was open. Branch/Plant Enter a code that identifies a separate entity as a warehouse location, job, project, work center, branch, or plant in which distribution and manufacturing activities occur. In some systems, this is called a business unit. Enter the alphanumeric code that identifies a separate entity within a business for which you want to track costs. In some systems, this is called a branch/plant. Enter the code that represents a specific category code. Category codes are user-defined codes that you customize to handle the tracking and reporting requirements of your organization. Enter a code that identifies a specific organization, fund, or other reporting entity. The company code must already exist in the F0010 table and must identify a reporting entity that has a complete balance sheet. Enter the three-character code that represents the currency of the transaction. JD Edwards EnterpriseOne provides currency codes that are recognized by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). The system stores currency codes in the F0013 table. Enter the company number associated with the document. This number, used in conjunction with the document number, document type, and general ledger date, uniquely identifies an original document. If you assign next numbers by company and fiscal year, the system uses the document company to retrieve the correct next number for that company. If two or more original documents have the same document number and document type, you can use the document company to display the document that you want. Document Number Displays a number that identifies the original document, which can be a voucher, invoice, journal entry, or time sheet, and so on. On entry forms, you can assign the original document number or the system can assign it through the Next Numbers program. Enter the two-character UDC, from UDC table 00/DT, that identifies the origin and purpose of the transaction, such as a voucher, invoice, journal entry, or time sheet. JD Edwards EnterpriseOne reserves these prefixes for the document types indicated: P: Accounts payable documents. R: Accounts receivable documents. T: Time and pay documents. I: Inventory documents. O: Purchase order documents. S: Sales order documents.

General Preface
Effective Date
Enter the date on which an address, item, transaction, or record becomes active. The meaning of this field differs, depending on the program. For example, the effective date can represent any of these dates: The date on which a change of address becomes effective. The date on which a lease becomes effective. The date on which a price becomes effective. The date on which the currency exchange rate becomes effective. The date on which a tax rate becomes effective.
Fiscal Period and Fiscal Year G/L Date (general ledger date)
Enter a number that identifies the general ledger period and year. For many programs, you can leave these fields blank to use the current fiscal period and year defined in the Company Names & Number program (P0010). Enter the date that identifies the financial period to which a transaction will be posted. The system compares the date that you enter on the transaction to the fiscal date pattern assigned to the company to retrieve the appropriate fiscal period number and year, as well as to perform date validations.

CHAPTER 3
Form Types
Applications use a variety of form types. The characteristics of each form type remain the same, regardless of the application in which you access the form.
Find/Browse Form
The Find/Browse form provides the entry point to most applications. It contains an optional query-by-example (QBE) line so that you can search any field in the grid. The standard title for a Find/Browse form begins with "Work With" followed by information that is specific to the business task. You cannot add or change existing records on a Find/Browse form. Find/Browse forms enable you to do these tasks: Search, view, and select multiple records in a grid Exit to another form to add, change, or view a record
Search/Select Form
Use the Search/Select form to locate a value for a field. The grid displays values that are stored in a database table. When you select a value from the grid and click the Select button, that value is automatically placed in the field. For example, when you need to enter a user defined code (UDC) into a field, the search button appears, enabling you to access a Search/Select form that displays a list of UDCs. You can select an item from the list and place it in the appropriate field. You cannot edit the information that appears on this form.
Chapter 3
Fix/Inspect Form
The Fix/Inspect form does not include a detail area. If a record was chosen on a previous form, the Fix/Inspect form displays data for that record. If you are adding a record, the Fix/Inspect form is empty, except for any default values. Fix/Inspect forms enable you to: View a single record Add a record Change a record
Parent/Child Form
The Parent/Child form presents parent/child relationships in an application on one form. The left portion of the form presents a list of items. The right portion of the form displays information that relates to the selected item in the left portion of the form.

Navigating in EnterpriseOne
This section provides an overview of the EnterpriseOne Menu, and discusses how to: Navigate in EnterpriseOne Menu. Use the fast path. Access your favorites task view. Add a Task to your Favorites Task View
Menu
The left portion of EnterpriseOne Menu displays a tree structure that you can use to navigate to the specific application or report that you want to launch. The tree can contain objects other than applications; for this reason, all objects in the tree are called tasks. Nodes, applications (including reports), and shortcuts in the tree are all tasks. Each time you click a node, you expand the tree a level and the view of the tree changes.
10
Chapter 3
Principal sets of tasks are called task views. Your system administrator configures your task view list; that is, the initial contents of the tree. The list might start or end with a special task view called Favorites. All your other task views appear above or below this one. System administrators use JD Edwards Solution Explorer and JD Edwards EnterpriseOne ERP security applications to manage user accounts and to configure EnterpriseOne Menu. As you expand nodes the description of the node will wrap to the next line. You can use the Expand icon on the top of the menu to maximize the menu to full screen. To collapse the menu to the fixed width, you use the Restore icon. When the menu is expanded, applications will be displayed in a new window. You can customize the width of the menu by clicking the edge of the menu and dragging it to the size you desire. This width will be stored for you, and will continue to display at the same width until you change it. EnterpriseOne Menu displays visual cues to help you identify the type of task. Interactive applications have a dash (-) beside them; batch applications have a blue dot beside them; all other tasks have a green dot beside them.
Fast Path
Fast Path is a field that enables you to access a specific task (that is, a folder, application, or report) directly. You use commands in Fast Path to move quickly among menus and applications. To use the Fast Path field, enter a Fast Path code and click the button to the right of the field. Depending on how your system administrator configured your account, you might not be able to see Fast Path. You can also use the Fast Path field to access menus. Task views are composed of menus and individual tasks. Menus have no special format in EnterpriseOne Menu; they simply provide application developers with a convenient method of grouping applications. When you access a menu, you actually access a specific place in a task view. To access a menu, enter its ID. For example, G0 accesses the Foundation Systems menu. You can find a menus ID by hovering over it. To launch an application, enter the applications program number. To specify a form in the application, enter the applications program number followed by a |, and then enter the form ID. For example, when you enter P01012|W01012B, the system displays the Work with Addresses form in the Address Book application. You can specify a version of a form to open by adding a | and the version number after the form name; for example, P01012|W01012B|ZJDE0003. Contact your system administrator for specific internal task, menu, and application IDs. Not all objects have Fast Path commands.
Favorites
The Favorites task view is where you can save links to other tasks. If you frequently run a task, you can save that task in your favorites list. Then, you can access that task directly from your Favorites task view. You have your own Favorites task view, and other users in your company have their own Favorites task views. No one else can see your Favorites task view or your changes. Depending on how your system administrator configured your account, you might not be able to see or change your Favorites task view.

Chapter 3
Actions
The Actions section displays static links that your system administrator makes available for you to use. These links are tasks that are used frequently by most users, such as a link to the online help, or a link to your personal profile. These links are available to all users accessing the same environment.
Preferences
The Preferences section of the EnterpriseOne Menu has the following option: Minimize menu on app launch. These options determine whether the menu is displayed when an application is opened and where the application is displayed. If you choose Minimize menu on app launch option, the menu will not display when you launch an application. Clicking the Restore button will redisplay the menu.
1. In EnterpriseOne Menu, click a task (that is, a folder) in the tree. The task node expands to show the tasks beneath it. 2. Continue to drill into the tree structure until you reach the object you want to launch. Hover over a task to see more information about it. The system tells you what kind of object the task is (for example, application, report, and so on) and other information, such as its number and version. 3. To launch the object, click it. You can launch multiple applications. Depending on how your system administrator has configured your system, additional applications launch in the same window or in a different window. If the system is configured for multiple browser windows, you can hold down the CTRL key when you press Enter to launch the application in a new window. Either way, the applications you have running appear at the top of the tree under Open Applications.

Understanding Records
Databases store information in units called records. Each record might contain more than one item of information. For example, Dominique Abbott is an item of information in the EnterpriseOne system. When you access Dominique Abbott from the Address Book application, the record that appears might also include Dominiques phone number, address, and other pertinent information. The system might save all of this information as one record, or it might save some of this information as a primary record and other information as secondary records. These types of relationships exist throughout the system. Database tables store all system records. Each record must have at least one key that links the record to a database table. Keys are unique identifiers that distinguish one record from another. For example, Address Book uses Address Number as the key to distinguish each record. Therefore, each Address Number must be unique. When creating new records, you must enter information into a key field. If you do not enter information into a key field, the system displays an error message. Once you have entered information into a key field, you cannot edit that key field later. To change the key field information, you need to create a new record. The Media Objects feature allows you to add notes, graphics, and other objects to records.

< = Less than or equal to > Greater than > = Greater than or equal to ! Not equal to Each time that you enter values in a search, click the Find button to retrieve matching records. 82
Choosing a Record
You choose a record for a variety of reasons. For example, you might need to change an employees address and phone number. You can choose a single record or multiple records from the Find/Browse form, and then you can change the information on a Revision form. You can choose a record in one of two ways: Click the record and then click the Select button to open the corresponding form. Double-click a record to select it and open the corresponding form. To choose a record: 1. On any Find/Browse form, locate a record. 2. Double-click the record to display it on a revision form. 3. On the revisions form, revise the record and then click OK. If you selected more than one record, your second record might appear now. If your second record does not appear, click the Next button at the top of the form. Continue to revise as needed. 4. After you finish, be sure to click OK to save your latest revision and then click Cancel to exit.
Adding a Record
When adding records to the database, you add the primary record first and then add the secondary records. To add a record: 1. On a Find/Browse form, click Add to open a blank revision form. 2. Enter the information for the new record. 3. Click OK. When you add records, the system uses the Next Numbers feature to automatically number Address Book records, journal entries, purchase orders, and other documents.
Changing a Record
In EnterpriseOne, a Find/Browse form appears when you open most applications. On the Find/Browse form, you choose the action that you want to perform. Choosing a button or function that you want to perform displays, for example, a Fix/Inspect form on which you can change your record. As you move from field to field, you view your changes reflected in the form. If you type an invalid value in a field, the field highlights in red and an error appears. You must correct the error before you click OK. Clicking OK saves your changes in the database.
23
Chapter 3
You cannot change information on the Find/Browse form itself. The information you have changed appears after you choose the appropriate button on the Find/Browse form. To change a record: 1. On a Find/Browse form, choose a record. You can double-click a record, or choose a record and then click the Select button. 2. On the revisions form, revise information as needed. 3. Click OK to accept the revisions.
Deleting a Record
Occasionally, you might need to remove a record from your database. For example, you might no longer use a particular supplier. Depending upon the application, if you delete a primary record the system might also delete any secondary records related to the primary record, such as phone numbers. See the appropriate application guide for information about deleting child records. To delete a record: 1. On a Find/Browse form, choose one or more records. 2. Click Delete. The system prompts you to confirm the deletion.
24
Chapter 3
When you place your cursor in a field that contains an error, a dialog box displays that further identifies what you must enter into the field to correct the error. You can move the dialog box by clicking the top of it and dragging it to another location on the screen. You can tab out of the field to validate the information. After the information is validated, the error message is removed from the list. To view all the errors on the form listed at the top of the form, click Go to Top. To disable the pop-up dialog box, clear the Enable Error Pop-Ups check box at the top of the form.
Auto Populate On
AutoPopulate assists you when you are performing repetitive data entry on the grid control. It uses content that already exists in the grid column to populate the cell in which you are currently typing. If the characters you are typing match those that already exist in the same column, AutoPopulate automatically adds the whole string of characters from the existing cell to the current cell. For example, you have already entered the following number into a cell in the column in which you are currently typing: 330456 If you type a 3 in the current cell, AutoPopulate will automatically place 330456 in the cell in which you are working. You can opt to accept the number by pressing tab, or you can delete the number and enter one of your own. You can turn AutoPopulate on or off. The action you select will apply to all applications to which you have access within JD Edwards EnterpriseOne. The feature is disabled for simplified Chinese, Korean, Japanese, and traditional Chinese language environments.

External Messages
You system administrator configures your JD Edwards EnterpriseOne user account to receive either internal or external email. However, certain messages are sent as internal email regardless of this preference; for example, notifications of submitted UBE jobs.
55
Chapter 6
Workflow Messages
In addition to sending and receiving internal and external messages, you can receive an active message, which is a type of message that a system workflow process automatically sends to a recipient.
Active Messages Workflow processes sometimes generate messages that require you to take action, such as approving or rejecting a change to a customer record. A lightning bolt button identifies an active message. Active messages contain a shortcut button that links directly to an application. When you click the shortcut button, the system retrieves the most current information from the database, which ensures that you get accurate information even if changes are made after an active message is sent to you. You can set up a workflow process to send active messages to specific queues.
Queues
Queues are storage areas that enable you to organize messages using the Work Center. For example, messages can be organized into queues for priority mail or for submitted jobs. Through a queue, users can approve or reject specific tasks in a workflow process. A queue is actually a UDC, and you set up a queue in the same way that you would set up a UDC.
56
Chapter 6
Workflow Queues
Workflow includes several predefined queues, but you might want to set up a custom queue for messages generated by processes that you create. For example, you might want to set up a queue for messages generated by a credit limit approval process. This queue would gather any approval or rejection messages related to credit limits for customers. A user could then open that queue and act on the message contained within it.

The system returns you to the previous application. If you opt to keep a copy of a message that you send, you can view it in the same queue from which you sent the message.
Understanding Shortcuts
With the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne messaging system, you can send messages that contain a shortcut to a JD Edwards EnterpriseOne application. When you send a shortcut, you can preface it with a message for the recipient to review and approve. For example, you might want your manager to approve a change that you made to a customer record. After sending a shortcut to your manager, he or she can view the record immediately by clicking the shortcut button. When you send a shortcut, the system sends the key for that particular record to the recipient. When the recipient clicks the shortcut button, the system opens the application and retrieves the record.
61
Chapter 7
The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne system uses workflow to automatically send messages with a shortcut to an application. These types of messages, called active messages, require that the recipient open the shortcut to verify information or approve a transaction. Since JD Edwards EnterpriseOne software supports Windows and Web clients, the message can contain a shortcut for a Windows application or a Web application.

View Messages
You can view your messages in the Work Center. Messages sent from other users will appear in either your Personal In Basket queue or, if you set them up, your Priority Mail and Secondary queues. You can also view workflow messages, or active messages, sent by a workflow process. Note. If you cannot view messages, make sure that queue security is set up to enable you to view the Address Book number and queue that you want to view.
Revise Messages
You can revise the text of messages in any of your queues. This feature opens up the actual message and enables you to change the text or add new text.
Reassign Messages
The messaging system enables you to reassign a message to another user after the message is sent to the original recipient. This process changes whose queue the message appears in. For example, if you originally sent a message to Jim, you can reassign that message to Betty. The message will now be in Bettys queue and will not be in Jims queue. You can also reassign messages that you receive. You can only reassign messages in other users queues if your queue security enables.

Chapter 7
Delete Messages
You cannot recover a message after you move it to the Deleted queue. It remains in your Deleted queue until your system administrator purges messages, which is typically done on a periodic or predetermined schedule. Alternatively, you can remove a message from the system by deleting it from your Deleted queue.

Description Media objects can be files that conform to the OLE standard. OLE enables you to create links among different programs. Using these links, you can create and edit an object from one program through a different program. JD Edwards EnterpriseOne software provides the links that you need to attach OLE objects. You attach OLE media objects at the base form level. Media objects attached at this level are attached to a form and not to any data that might appear in the form. You can attach media objects to a grid row or a form, but the files themselves exist in separate directories. The only file information included with the application to which the OLE links is the path to the supporting file. You can only use OLE objects that you properly register and install as OLE objects through Windows.
JDE shortcuts
A JDE shortcut is a link that opens a JD Edwards EnterpriseOne software application. Within media objects, you can only attach JD Edwards EnterpriseOne software shortcuts; you cannot attach shortcuts to third-party applications. Media objects can be links to Web page URLs or other related files. When a developer attaches a URL media object to a control object on a form, the Web page appears as part of the form. When a user attaches a URL to a form or Object Librarian object, the media object acts as a link to the URL.
System administrators can set up templates that might include their own attachments, such as images and shortcuts. For example, you can create a letterhead and a standard form for a memo. Also, you might create a shortcut, to be included in the template, that provides access to an application that uses data specific to the information that you add to the template. Each time you save a media object, whether it is a new media object, or whether you have modified an existing one, EnterpriseOne timestamps the media object with your user ID, the date, and time. This information displays in the upper right corner of the media object. The information that displays is retrieved from the Enterprise server, so if your Enterprise server resides in a different time zone, the time and date that displays will be different than the time zone in which you are working. For example, if you work in the Eastern time zone, but the Enterprise server you are using resides in the Pacific time zone, the date and time that is recorded when you save the media object will be Pacific time. Note. If you open a Microsoft Excel OLE media object, place the cursor in the spreadsheet, then click Save, EnterpriseOne timestamps the media object even if you have not made changes.

Abbreviation for Business Process Execution Language Process Manager, a comprehensive infrastructure for creating, deploying, and managing BPEL business processes. Configurable settings in a text file that are used by a build program to generate ANT scripts. ANT is a software tool used for automating build processes. These scripts build published business services. An actor that is responsible for building, mastering, and packaging artifacts. Some build engineers are responsible for building application artifacts, and some are responsible for building foundation artifacts. A WIN32 executable that reads build configuration files and generates an ANT script for building published business services. An actor that determines if and why an EnterpriseOne business service needs to be developed. A named set of user-created, reusable business rules and logs that can be called through event rules. Business functions can run a transaction or a subset of a transaction (check inventory, issue work orders, and so on). Business functions also contain the application programming interfaces (APIs) that enable them to be called from a form, a database trigger, or a non-JD Edwards EnterpriseOne application. Business functions can be combined with other business functions, forms, event rules, and other components to make up an application. Business functions can be created through event rules or third-generation languages, such as C. Examples of business functions include Credit Check and Item Availability. See named event rule (NER). EnterpriseOne business logic written in Java. A business service is a collection of one or more artifacts. Unless specified otherwise, a business service implies both a published business service and business service. Source files, descriptors, and so on that are managed for business service development and are needed for the business service build process. A method that accesses resources provided by the business service framework. Configuration files include, but are not limited to, interop.ini, JDBj.ini, and jdelog.properties. A key and value data pair used during orchestration. Collectively refers to both the code and the key cross reference in the WSG/XPI based system. Utility services installed in a BPEL/ESB environment that are used to access JD Edwards EnterpriseOne orchestration cross-reference data. A framework needed by an integration developer to develop and manage business services. Otherwise known as JDeveloper. A collection of artifacts managed by EnterpriseOne LCM tools. Named and represented within EnterpriseOne LCM similarly to other EnterpriseOne objects like tables, views, forms, and so on.

The business service payload contains the results from the business service when passed to the Enterprise Server. In the case of notifications, the return business service payload contains the acknowledgement. Key value data pairs used to control the behavior or functionality of business services. An EnterpriseOne application for developers and administrators to manage business service property records. A classification for business service property at the business service level. This is generally a business service name. A business service level contains one or more business service property groups. Each business service property group may contain zero or more business service property records. A way to categorize business service properties. These properties are categorized by business service. A unique name that identifies the business service property globally in the system. A utility API used in business service development to access EnterpriseOne business service property data. A value for a business service property. A source management system, for example ClearCase, where business service artifacts and build files are stored. Or, a physical directory in network.

A utility used to create a business service value object template from a business service value object. The object to be deployed to the business services server. A means for selecting specific columns from one or more JD Edwards EnterpriseOne application tables whose data is used in an application or report. A business view does not select specific rows, nor does it contain any actual data. It is strictly a view through which you can manipulate data. A process that blends a customers modifications to the objects in a current release with objects in a new release. A server that has been designated to contain the originally installed version of the software (central objects) for deployment to client computers. In a typical JD Edwards EnterpriseOne installation, the software is loaded on to one machinethe central server. Then, copies of the software are pushed out or downloaded to various workstations attached to it. That way, if the software is altered or corrupted through its use on workstations, an original set of objects (central objects) is always available on the central server.

In JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, the object request broker and control center for the runtime environment. OCM keeps track of the runtime locations for business functions, data, and batch applications. When one of these objects is called, OCM directs access to it using defaults and overrides for a given environment and user. A repository of all versions, applications, and business functions reusable in building applications. Object Librarian provides check-out and check-in capabilities for developers, and it controls the creation, modification, and use of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne objects. Object Librarian supports multiple environments (such as production and development) and enables objects to be easily moved from one environment to another. A process that blends any modifications to the Object Librarian in a previous release into the Object Librarian in a new release. An interoperability model that enables you to use SQL statements to extract JD Edwards EnterpriseOne data for summarization and report generation. An interoperability model that enables you to set up an interface for JD Edwards EnterpriseOne to pass data to another software package, such as Microsoft Excel, for processing. JD Edwards EnterpriseOne objects are installed to workstations in packages from the deployment server. A package can be compared to a bill of material or kit that indicates the necessary objects for that workstation and where on the deployment server the installation program can find them. It is point-in-time snapshot of the central objects on the deployment server. A software application that facilitates the deployment of software changes and new applications to existing users. Additionally, in JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, a package build can be a compiled version of the software. When you upgrade your version of the ERP software, for example, you are said to take a package build. Consider the following context: Also, do not transfer business functions into the production path code until you are ready to deploy, because a global build of business functions done during a package build will automatically include the new functions. The process of creating a package build is often referred to, as it is in this example, simply as a package build.

patterns
General repeatable solutions to a commonly occurring problem in software design. For business service development, the focus is on the object relationships and interactions. For orchestrations, the focus is on the integration patterns (for example, synchronous and asynchronous request/response, publish, notify, and receive/reply). A means of grouping end items whose similarity of design and manufacture facilitates being planned in aggregate. The ability to define default values for specified fields for a user-defined hierarchy of items, item groups, customers, and customer groups. The interface between a printer and a network that enables network clients to connect to the printer and send their print jobs to it. A print server can be a computer, separate hardware device, or even hardware that resides inside of the printer itself. A JD Edwards EnterpriseOne environment used to test unaltered objects with JD Edwards EnterpriseOne demonstration data or for training classes. You must have this environment so that you can compare pristine objects that you modify. A data structure that enables users to supply parameters that regulate the running of a batch program or report. For example, you can use processing options to specify default values for certain fields, to determine how information appears or is printed, to specify date ranges, to supply runtime values that regulate program execution, and so on. A JD Edwards EnterpriseOne environment in which users operate EnterpriseOne software. A file server that has been quality assurance tested and commercialized and that is usually provided in conjunction with user support services. Published business services web service deployed to a production application server. A representation of changes to JD Edwards EnterpriseOne software that your organization receives on magnetic tapes or disks. In JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, a virtual container for objects being developed in Object Management Workbench. The designated path for advancing objects or projects in a workflow. The following is the normal promotion cycle (path): 11>21>26>28>38>01 In this path, 11 equals new project pending review, 21 equals programming, 26 equals QA test/review, 28 equals QA test/review complete, 38 equals in production, 01 equals complete. During the normal project promotion cycle, developers check objects out of and into the development path code and then promote them to the prototype path code. The objects are then moved to the productions path code before declaring them complete.

The F98DRPUB table identifies all of the published tables and their associated publishers in the enterprise. One of the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne methods for replicating data to individual workstations. Such machines are set up as pull subscribers using JD Edwards EnterpriseOne data replication tools. The only time that pull subscribers are notified of changes, updates, and deletions is when they request such information. The request is in the form of a message that is sent, usually at startup, from the pull subscriber to the server machine that stores the F98DRPCN table. An abbreviation for query by example. In JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, the QBE line is the top line on a detail area that is used for filtering data. A message triggered from EnterpriseOne application logic that is intended for external systems to consume.

Table F98DRSUB, which is stored on the publisher server with the F98DRPUB table and identifies all of the subscriber machines for each published table. An inheritance concept of the Java language where a class is an instance of something, but is also more specific. Tree might be the superclass of Oak and Elm, for example. Any type of information that is not maintained in a master file. Supplemental data is usually additional information about employees, applicants, requisitions, and jobs (such as an employees job skills, degrees, or foreign languages spoken). You can track virtually any type of information that your organization needs. For example, in addition to the data in the standard master tables (the Address Book Master, Customer Master, and Supplier Master tables), you can maintain other kinds of data in separate, generic databases. These generic databases enable a standard approach to entering and maintaining supplemental data across JD Edwards EnterpriseOne systems. table access management (TAM) The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne component that handles the storage and retrieval of use-defined data. TAM stores information, such as data dictionary definitions; application and report specifications; event rules; table definitions; business function input parameters and library information; and data structure definitions for running applications, reports, and business functions.
